Description Marcela Mašláňová 2007-05-10 14:55:41 UTC
Description of problem:
laus_attach 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Use laus_attach in at.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to run at job version at-3.1.8-64.EL3
   touch /tmp/somefile | batch
2. see tail -f /var/log/messages
  
Actual results:
Apr 3 16:16:19 lab atd[1664]: LAuS error - atd.c:565 - laus_attach:(19)
laus_attach: No such device

Expected results:
no error message? Error message isn't the main problem.
If I want functional pam support I have to restart atd daemon after each reboot.

Additional info:
edit /etc/security/limits.conf
*          hard         fsize         4000000
reboot computer
log in as non root
echo "ulimit -a > /tmp/p" | batch
cat /tmp/p
(unlimited)

Now if you restart at: service atd restart
and run 
echo "ulimit -a > /tmp/p" | batch 
again, you have the right size of limit 4000000.

I've tested it without laus and then is functional without restarting. I've also
read bug#131860, which's maybe related with problem and was also fixed with
workaround.

The whole problem is in bug#196717.

Comment 2 Steve Grubb 2007-05-14 14:29:00 UTC
Is this a new problem caused by the new version of laus, or does any version of
laus cause this problem? Also, what is the start priority of at and laus? Do you
have any strace data showing what the code is doing? Does /dev/audit exist when
atd starts up?

Thanks.
